Stephanie
Miguel '11 (Maple, Ontario /St.
Robert Catholic HS (Toronto Aeros)) scored
two goals and added an assist to lead Hamilton
College to a 7-2 win against visiting Wesleyan
University in a New England Small College
Athletic Conference women's ice hockey game at
Russell Sage Rink on Nov. 28.
Miguel -- a second team All-American in 2009 --
recorded her first three points of the season.
Laura DiCarlo '12 (Chicopee,
Mass. /Williston-Northampton School )
chipped in two goals for her first multi-goal
game at Hamilton. The Continentals (1-3 overall,
1-2 NESCAC) had scored just one goal in their
first three games.
Hamilton is 6-0-1 in its last seven games
against Wesleyan, and leads the all-time series,
14-7-1. The Cardinals (0-3, 0-3) have allowed
seven or more goals in all three games this
season.
Wesleyan scored its first goal this season on
slap shot from above the right circle that was
deflected by a defender's stick and the puck
skidded between the goalie's pads. It came just
13 seconds into the first period for a 1-0
Cardinals' lead.
On the ensuing faceoff, Katie Zimmerman
'13 (Plymouth, Mich. /Plymouth-Salem
HS (Victory Honda)) grabbed the puck for the
Continentals, and skated from left to right in
front of the crease before she shoved the puck
into the goal from the right side for her first
collegiate goal. Hamilton took a 2-1 lead at
9:34 of the first with Miguel's first goal on a
backhand shot in front from the left side. The
Cardinals tied the score with 5:26 left in the
opening period on a wrister from the right
circle that banged off the inside of the left
post and into the back of the net.
The Continentals assumed control in the second
period with the first two of five straight
goals. Miguel skated down the left side and
shuffled a pass from the left circle to
Amy Allen '10 (Bright's Grove,
Ontario /Loomis Chaffee School) , who was
positioned in the right circle. Allen one-timed
Miguel's pass for her 29th career goal at 4:21.
Miguel made the score 4-2 on her second goal of
the night with 3:59 left in the period. Miguel
took a pass from Christie Sharlow '11
(Potsdam, N.Y. /Brewster
Academy) , skated around the back of the net
and stuffed the puck into the goal from the
right side.
Hamilton put the game out of reach with two
goals by DiCarlo in the opening 3:08 of the
third period just 100 seconds apart.
Bret Lineberry '11 (Henniker, N.H.
/Loomis Chaffee School) accounted for the
final score with her first collegiate goal with
4:59 remaining.
Becca Hazlett '13 (Grosse
Pointe Park, Mich. /Taft School) made seven
saves during the final two periods for the
Continentals in relief of starting goalie
Meg Shine '10 (Duxbury,
Mass. /Tabor Academy) . Hamilton enjoyed a
43-11 advantage in shots.
The Continentals host Trinity College on Sunday,
Nov. 28, for another conference game.
